dict of accidental drowning. McHale was

Of tailings daily. The dynamos were start
ed up yesterday in order to make sure that
all is right and the connections properly
made. These dyn amos are either Of them
amply powerful to furnish electricity enough
for the whole mill, the object OF ha wing two
machines, is in order to have one machine
resting half the time, as constantly running
a dynamo will heat it too much and thus de.
stroy it. All the difficulties have now been
obvated, and DR.. Rae is prepared to set up
his electric system whenever wanted with
absolute certainty Of success. One Of the
principal difficulties to overc ONE was to di
vide the current and send to each settler the
require amount or TO cut it off entirely il
desirable. This was accomplished by new
style switch board, which Mr.. Seller, the
acknowledged leading electrician west Of the
Rocky Mountains, and DR.. Rae together
consumed six weeks in devisng and perfect
ing. The electric system is no longer an ex
pertinent. having stood the test Of practical
| application for the last two months, the re.
suit of which has been to confirm in every
particular the promises made by the several
test runs. This success means prosperity
| and employment for the people OF the min.
ing regions of the country and through them
prosperity 10 the whole country. DR.. Rae
has contracts for several mills at the present
time, and will be absent in San Francisco
for faw days, to test several new dynamos,
now being constructed for mills in Utah, Ar

every plant before allowing any to leave the

ABSTRACT OF YEARLY REPORT.


There was an INN :nse crowd at Bonner
lake last Sunday TO witness the race between
the steame Comet and launch Nora. There
was conside rable enthusiasm manifested by
the audience and the race was an interesting
one as both vessels were quite evenly match
ed. Shortly after 4 o'clock the start was
made from the foot of the lake, the objective
point being the other end. The Comet had
difficulty in making steam SO the Nora gained
slowly and at one time was nearly a quarter
Of a mile ahead. Near the finish the Comet
gained but the former won by several rods.
The time was twenty-seven minutes
